Posted in thread: DMV area Free Fidge on 07-13-2015 at 01:47 AMLong story short: my workplace no longer needs the fridge we have. Motor on top, so it's fairly
tall. Fidge works fine, freezer on bottom is busted, but makes for good storage. Great as
fermentation o...

Posted in thread: falconer's flight hops on 02-13-2014 at 06:42 AMI personally don't care for them. To me, they just have a generic, citrusy American hop flavor,
which is great if that's what your going for. I do like them as a base for more interesting
hops.

Posted in thread: 3724 + 3711 combo on 02-13-2014 at 06:33 AMPersonally, I'd just save the 3711 for another beer. Depending on the size of your starter and
the temps of your fermentation, the 3724 should make short work of a 1.030 wort. Hell, that's
where a lot...

Posted in thread: Let's talk whey on 09-22-2013 at 06:53 AMI think that whey is great when making porridge-like starches: risotto, polenta, grits, etc.

smell, I would advise against it.

Posted in thread: Weizenbock Recipe - Dark Wheat Substitute? on 08-21-2013 at 01:49 PMMaybe try replacing the pilsner with more munich. It'll give you a little bit more color and
malty richness, but you still won't get the crackery flavor of the dark wheat.

Posted in thread: Amber Malt Curious on 08-17-2013 at 01:27 PMI've used it a number of times in porters, where its contribution is hard to judge. The one
beer I've used it where you can make it out was an English IPA where the grain bill was 94% TF

Posted in thread: Do You Cook Golden Naked Oats? on 08-14-2013 at 03:47 AMWell, I don't cook any other crystal malts, but I do grind them, so I will continue to treat
Golden Naked Oats in this manner.

Posted in thread: Dunkelweizen critque on 08-14-2013 at 03:42 AMI've done something very similar (.5#carawheat and 4oz chocolate wheat malt with the same
amount of munich and dark wheat, similar IBUs and same yeast). The dark wheat and munich are
both fairly low i...

Posted in thread: Hop Growing in Pennsylvania on 08-11-2013 at 09:34 PMLong story. I was growing hops in large planters on my balcony in Richmond, VA, before moving
to Philly two years ago. Cut down the hops, brought them with us, even though we wouldn't have
an outdoor ...
